I’m with the “meh” crowd on this. The insects are cool and intricate enough by themselves. Jamming a few random watch parts into them really doesn’t do anything for me. Now, _entire_ bugs made out of watch parts - sure - those are cool. This just seems like somebody’s 3rd-grade steampunk art project. They just need to glue macaroni on them and paint them gold now…

Less disturbing for those who don’t like the use of dead animals/ insects.

Its rather disturbing thinking of these bugs used to be alive and now turned into these kind of steampunk thing. but still these are bloody fantastic!!!

I don’t think there is any moral issue with using/killing animals. After all, the first thing God did after Adam fell, was to kill a lamb to make them clothes with, and demanded animal sacrifice. Jesus helped his disciples catch a whole boat load of fish, and ate them. We should be careful of making a moral issue out of something God doesn’t.

It’s art and the insects/arachnids are dead. But I must add I don’t give a damn what the Bible, or the Quaran, or any other purported holy text says about anything.
